BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION South Central Waterfront Advisory Board Recommendation Number: (20210602-3a): Resolution Recommending a South Central Waterfront Committee of the Austin Economic Development Corporation Board Whereas: The City Council of Austin (“the Council”) resolved to initiate a comprehensive small-area plan for the South Central Waterfront. The August 2013 Council resolution cites that this area faces unique challenges as development pressures rise, and that the current land development codes and the waterfront overlay ordinance are not adequate to guide development in a way that will fully achieve the goals of the Town Lake Corridor Study. Whereas: The South Central Waterfront Vision Framework Plan was adopted by Council as an amendment to the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan on June 16th, 2016. Whereas: In adopting the South Central Waterfront Vision Framework Plan, the City Council cited key findings from preliminary studies which advised that zoning ordinances alone were not adequate to guide development in a way to achieve community values that date back to the Town Lake Corridor Study of 1985. These values include enhanced public access to the shore, expanded open space, ensuring quality design, and the maximization of water quality. More recent public engagement, and the adoption of the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan, expanded the list of community desires to include more affordable housing and sustainable technologies. Whereas: In 2016 Council created the South Central Waterfront Advisory Board (“the Board”) to provide continuity and communication among stakeholders and advocates as the South Central Waterfront Plan moves toward implementation and to provide recommendations to the City Council regarding plan implementation. Whereas: The Board is made up of not only experts in their field but community members who live near the project area whose input has been and will continue to be imperative to this process. More importantly, community input is critical to the success of the project to ensure the City continues to foster meaningful community engagement through a process that is transparent and in the best interest of not just the residents of the immediate surrounding area, but the city as a whole. Whereas: Included in the South Central Waterfront Plan approved by Council in 2016 was the recommendation to form a development corporation, specific to the South Central Waterfront area, which could provide the district with a suite of predevelopment and development services to assist the execution of both public and private projects within the district. This development corporation could facilitate …

AUSTIN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION M E M O R A N D U M South Central Waterfront Advisory Board Veronica Briseño, Interim Chief Executive Officer Austin Economic Development Corporation March 2, 2021 TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: As directed through Resolution 20190808-072 and Resolution 20201001-055, the Austin Economic Development Corporation (AEDC) assumed a lead role coordinating due diligence needed to support the request for a potential Council-approved financing mechanism(s), specifically a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) to achieve the vision plan of the South Central Waterfront (SCW). Since the organization was created by Council in October of 2020, AEDC’s leadership has taken three principal forms: February Update from Austin Economic Development Corporation 1) Administratively establishing the organization for long-term support to SCW and other projects; 2) Completing the technical analysis required to support the TIRZ ordinance; and 3) Engaging with City staff to progress the request(s) and stakeholders to receive continued guidance. On the technical side, AEDC is already contributing resources to work with legal counsel for drafting an Ordinance, Project Plan, and Preliminary Financing Plan that the organization intends to provide the City in support of its evaluation of the request for the City Council’s designation of a TIRZ. As part of this process, AEDC has compiled previous work conducted by ECONorthwest, CMR, and the City that estimate the potential costs and revenues associated with the SCW Vision Plan. In addition, AEDC has retained Winstead PC to advise on legal aspects of the TIRZ formation and ECONorthwest to draft a memo summarizing its prior findings. Further, AEDC has engaged the City’s Housing and Planning Department, Economic Development Department and Financial Services Department staff through weekly meetings and workshops on the project that also support regular briefings with Council offices. Monthly Updates and On-going Coordination To support on-going coordination of communications for transparency, feedback and guidance, AEDC has committed to providing a monthly written update to the South Central Waterfront Advisory Board (SCWAB). If there Is a pressing issue or need, AEDC staff will attend the SCWAB meeting to seek input. David Colligan, AEDC Interim COO, will be the key contact for the SCWAB. Upcoming Discussions and Council Action Understanding that a number of priorities and timelines are shifting due to the City closure and emergency response efforts attributed to weather conditions during the week of February 14, 2021, AEDC intends to join the next SCWAB monthly meeting to present an …
